As always i merged back and forth , tested , tried and fucked up my Viewer a lot of times , coming to the conclusion that its shit and i have to go back to the starting point , which leads me to that theres not much changed from PreRelease 1.02 to final 1.02 , all Major things were already included in 1.02 , but i dont want to come with empty paws so i´ve done atlast a few things here they are:
Multi-Level-Shadowing
Tofu keeps playing with his SSAO and Shadows and i keep merging his stuff up to a certain point where he went backwards instead of forward , at this point shadows look the best with maxmimum quality and minimum shadow resolution , i´ve explained and shown that already in the final Release one that High equivs nearly Extreme (2.5x Resolution) Settings before Tofu´s changes , but thats not enough , he kept doing awesome stuff and thats where Multi-Level-Shadowing jumps in
as you can see , alpha objects will throw shadows aswell , full shadows from 0-20 transparency , half shadows from 21-70 and no shadows from 71 onwards
Bugfixes & Changes
as Silverdragon told me , group profile buttons vanish when hovering over them , that came from me not able to find a way to seperatly tell the Viewer that Friendlist etc has them and group chatter list has info button only , this is "fixed" now , i removed the profile button completly as it is useless anyway , you got 3 other ways to open his/her profile...Button , right click and inspector...
I´ve modified the IM Panel aswell ...again, this time the Namedisplay has been changed , from now on it will not show User Name (display.name) anymore , it will ONLY show User Name OR Display Name (when i figure out why both doesnt work anymore i will add that aswell) depending on if you enabled Display Names in IM found in Preferences - Viewer - UI Settings
Double Click TP Shortcut was fixed and a crash on logout with active notifications which some of you might have encountered without noticing
Well...and then there are 2 special things , number one is working Mesh Uploads! Thanks to Nicky Dasmijn
who made this possible (havnt tested yet, this is up to you for now)... Number 2 are the new Loadingscreens , i´ve thought long about adding the hide Progressscreen option , then i thought about reasons why people hide them? annoyance? boredom? probably both , now they arnt annoying anymore , instead they are HELPFULL! and they look cool too , have a look
and sometimes they even have a funny joke for you!
to close this post finally i´ve collected some... pics again for you to compare
